Nollywood star actress and filmmaker, Funke Akindele, popularly known for her role as Jenifa, has publicly declared herself a feminist.
The star made this statement while offering advice to the wife of popular skit maker, Kamo State, urging women to embrace their strength and independence.
She said; “I’m a feminist but I don’t support a woman disrespecting her husband. Make sure you do what is right.”
“I believe that we are not the weaker gender. Men are supposed to treat women specially with respect. Also men should not feel a woman belongs to the kitchen and talked to anyhow.”
“We women are strong, and bold. Our economic power is very important, that is why we should make sure we have the power and protect the power so we can support our husbands.”
